Posted by TimonThere is a difference with me. I can be connected to a person and still not communicate effectively. This is an ongoing thing in my life. I need a work around to be better at communicating. It's even easier to chat on this site with strangers then it is to reach out to someone in my phone. I just don't enjoy it, and I'm not sure why. I need to reverse my behavior, so I am looking for ideas.
I don't think it has to do with introverts/extroverts so much but with connection. If there's a connection you don't really need to worry about these things. When I find someone interesting I like talking to them a lot otherwise I can be a bit indifferent.
Posted by virgokingOne grows as a person when they have the motivation and dedication to improve themselves.
Opposite attract I don't know why women don't understand this. It's every where if your more of an extrovert you will attract a lot of introverts. Same dose not attract same. God did that for a reason so we can grow as a people.
Posted by saggurl88Doing activities you both like, it doesnt even have to be activities, similar interests are good too, introverts are often pretentious wanna philosophers ie. "deep thinkers".
What would be some ways to successfully over come chatting and getting with other introverts, as far as starting a relationship?
What do you all like when it comes to being pursued?
What works for you?
I know what I like, but am looking for outside resources, so I can maneuver the slew of introverts that I talk to in my real life. I want to try and be outside of my comfort zone but am asking for some ideas to try.
Posted by ParkourlerBut how do you get the other introvert out of the house? This is part of the struggle, to get them out of their minds and put actions behind their ideas.Posted by saggurl88

Posted by MrsElleCappysnatchI'm using Supes source.. that defines poverty on an international level, and includes the US.Posted by _Dazed
"What is the poverty line in the United States?
In the U.S. for a family a four, the poverty line is $ 25,100 a year. This means that families who earn less than that cannot afford rent, food, or other basic needs. For an individual in the U.S., the poverty line is $ 12,140 a year, or $ 33.26 per day. This poverty guideline is calculated based on information from the Census Bureau and is updated by evaluating recent price changes using the Consumer Price Index."
You can keep quoting this stuff but do realise it means nothing to someone who does not believe poverty exists in America when comparing it to other countries.
There is not a link, white page, thesis or study that will get me to see it from your perspective.
Putting "shocking" numbers in US currency is downright laughable.click to expand
Posted by nevesI'm tired of playing the guessing game, and I am mutable, I adapt and bend with learning, I live doing better. I understand something is fundamentally wrong with how I communicate with men I'm interested in. I want ideas about it.
If you don't know/understand - don't bother. That's not something you can learn. You either got what it takes (to be the right person) - or you don't. That's all there is to it.
Posted by ItsSupes2Just using your source my dude.Posted by _DazedPosted by _DazedPosted by ItsSupes2Posted by _Dazed
Elle and Supes keep mentioning supplemental services.
2018 Poverty rate for US: 14.1%
2018 SPM rate for the US: 12.8%
For those that do not know, the SPM (Supplemental Poverty Measure) was implemented with the intent to extend the official poverty measure by taking account of many of the government programs designed to assist low-income families and individuals that are not included in the official poverty measure.
According to the global poverty measure.....
If you have access to education, food....etc
You ain’t in poverty
From your source..
"In the United States, 12.3% of the population, or 39.7 million people, live in poverty — with an income of less than $ 33.26 per day — according to the 2017 census."
Your point on education..
It's not "access to education".
It's access to QUALITY EDUCATION.
Again.. your source.
"Children living in poverty often lack access to a quality education. Sometimes it’s because there’s not enough quality schools, their parents cannot afford school fees, or because impoverished families need their children to work. Without a quality education, children grow up being unable to provide for their own children — thus the generational cycle of poverty."
Education is absolute garbage in the US. We are ALL IN POVERTY THENclick to expand

It has nothing to do with intro/extraversion. Or "god".
You'll find that in many introvert-extrovert couples, the introvert becomes even more quiet, and the extrovert even more obnoxious.click to expand
